wonder wo-ME-n
If i were superEleiza, here are some of the superpowers i wish to have:
*telekinesis - like matilda, i want to bring my concentration ability/ mind power to a higher level
*teleportation - though fitness is my game (read: i walk more than a kilometer per day; i rarely ride toki/ikot jeeps inside the campus, unless i’m so late already or when it’s raining), i can’t avoid the need for such power like when i’m still out somewhere and the dorm curfew is fast approaching.
*invisibility - i’ve always wanted to experience how it feels inside an invisibility cloak like Harry. but according to my physics prof, scientists are already working on some things that can help facilitate invisibility. isn’t that cool?
*xray vision - i wonder how the world will look like when everybody sees everybody like skeletons embedded in black silhouettes.
*extreme flexibility - something like Lasticman’s power. with that, i wouldn’t need spidey’s web ropes anymore.
*et cetera
These are just the basics. I still wish to have some other extraordinary powers. But I guess that will only happen when i reincarnate in an extraterrestrial world where all these powers exist. As of now, i guess i just have to stick with being who i am and making full use of my God-given gifts in order to accomplish things that need to be done.
it's a sunny day | Comment (0)Happiness at MMC
If there’s one thing i’m glad i did last sem, that was applying for "the org". More formally known as UP Mathematics Majors’ Circle, UPMMC is home to math & nonmath major students alike.
At first, I was a bit indifferent about joining this org. My reasons include the lack of time balancing acads, dorm life and the load we then have to carry as applicants. I can’t imagine myself spending 70 tambay hours, attending org activities, going through the challenge week and the UCD when i first heard of the requirements for application. But as soon as the application process started, i realized it wasn’t that burdensome after all. Spending tambay hours at MB 104 paved way to opening new friendships. There I met students of all sorts who are bonded by the fact that they love, or had loved Math. The application process was by all means no piece of cake. We had to endure some challenges which i couldn’t disclose in this blog due to some org rules and provisions. Nonetheless, I’m proud to say that we [my coapps and i], have done all that we could in order to reap what we sowed.
One of the reasons why i joined an org is that i wanted to have a "home" in UP. True enough, it has been affirmed by the org members that UPMMC is a perfect avenue for building lasting friendships. I hope that also applies to me. So far, i’m starting to believe their claims and what the lyrics of the MMC hymn says which goes:
"…WE’RE NOT JUST AN ORG, WE’RE A FAMILY PA…. UPMMC…"

Finally! Another blog post after months of being blog-wise dormant. Actually, I was thinking of making an account in blogger but unfortunately, i lack the time and resources to maintain one. There’s no more net connection in our room at the dorm. Poor us. Plus, i don’t know how flash graphics and html what-do-u-call-that work. I guess i’ll just stick with occasional (tama ba spelling?) blogging.
